Hi there! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review on Glassdoor! We appreciate the positive review of Sequoia. We work hard to provide you great benefits and continually survey the market to ensure we are paying at or above what others are paying for similar positions - thank you so much for acknowledging that you see that as "pro". In terms of the lack of mobility, the HR team and your leadership and I would love to support you in seeing what opportunities are available at Sequoia. I have seen several team members grow with the company, including many in our Executive Team who started out in Service Technician and Leasing roles. There is definitely opportunity and I would love to help support you in that! Thank you again for taking the time to leave a review! -Enrica

Pros

I've worked for a couple other Property Management companies and I've got to say, Sequoia by far, knows how to take care of their employees. Not only do they have "Random Acts" for employees such as SURPRISE ice cream gifts cards, amazon cards, etc.. they also encourage employees to participate and have fun with monthly contest. It may not seem significant, but these smalls things promote a fun and enjoyable workplace where employees look forward to coming to work ready to put their best foot forward simply because they feel appreciated. Our effort and work is based off a sense of loyalty to an amazing company that cares about us vs. fear of being reprimanded; That's true leadership that starts from the top and works it's way down to encompass the entire team. Not only does the recruiting team share the spirit of Sequoia, but when the CEO himself continuously encourages us all to do the right thing so we can sleep well at night, I know that I am in the right place. In this industry, you have to be tough as nails but working for Sequoia, I can still do what's expected of me without compromising my personal moral values. It's so refreshing and take a big weight off my shoulders. From what I know of Sequoia prior to joining and from what I've seen, they are committed to continuous improvement as they continue to evolve and improve in various aspects of the company i.e., more efficient software, training, hiring/on-boarding, accounting, etc..

Cons

None that I can think of.
